PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: October 18, 2020
Last Edit/Review: April 6, 2022
1. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)
These FAQs provide a handy entry point to our longer and more comprehensive
Privacy Policy (see Section 2 below). They are intended to enhance rather than
replace the important notices in the Privacy Policy, which governs our
collection, use, storage, and sharing of the information that we collect or
receive from you.
WHAT'S NEW AS OF APRIL 6, 2022?
On April 6, 2022, we made edits to add our SyncSketch product to our privacy
policy. We also made some edits to provide clarity around your choices under our
Reflect Review Application. We updated our list of Third Party Ad Network
Partners.
On October 30, 2021, we made edits to reflect compliance with China's Personal
Information Protection Law ("PIPL"). We updated information that may be
collected and updated our Third Party Ad Network Partners.
On August 2, 2021, we updated our Third Party Ad Network Partners. We also added
information to add our Pixyz product to our privacy policy
On April 27, 2021, we added information to add our VisualLive product to our
privacy policy. Please note instructions on how to order your data reports for
this product.
On April 8, 2021, we made edits to the Privacy Policy to incorporate our privacy
practices regarding ChilliConnect, Furioos, and Rest AR. We also made updates to
Section 13, to incorporate data subject rights provided for by LGPD and the
Israel Protection of Privacy Law. Finally, we made some formatting and
clarifying changes to other sections.
On October 18, 2020, we made edits to the Privacy Policy to incorporate our
privacy practices regarding Artomatix, Códice Software (Plastic SCM), deltaDNA,
and Finger Food ATG. We made some edits about the information we may collect as
well as our use and sharing of it. We expanded on how we determine our retention
periods. We added information relating to Canadian Privacy Rights. We updated
our EU address. We updated our Third Party Ad Network Partners. Finally, we
added a provision on biometric information related to forthcoming products and
services.
On August 17, 2020, we edited Section 12 to provide an additional summary of
rights for data collected in Europe.
On May 27, 2020, we made the following updates: We updated our policy to include
a reference to our service provider’s privacy statement in Section 5. Other
changes on May 27, 2020 include an addition of three partners in Section 16 for
ads network partners. Finally, we have added a section about features involving
Unity’s access to cameras on devices. You will note there is similar language
in the consent we request for access to the camera, and we do not collect images
from your device at this time.
As of March 10, 2020, we added a last edit/review date. The difference between
an edit/review and an update is that "updates" involve material changes to our
policy whereas edits are not material or simply indicate a review has occurred.
For example, we may make clarifying edits by giving additional examples. When
we provide an update, you receive a notice to accept and read the changes, which
are summarized in this first FAQ.
As a reminder, we enhanced our FAQs in May 2018 to provide more examples of how
we may use some of the data we collect. These answers enhanced our prior
explanations but are not intended to imply that these are new uses of collected
data. Additionally, if your data indicates you are in the European Economic Area
(EEA), we have added information regarding new choices enabled for in-game
advertising, and information on how you can exercise your data access and
deletion (erasure) rights. We have added the l“Data Privacy” icon to our ads,
dashboards, and other points of interaction:
This icon will show you where you can review your data and exercise your privacy
choices. It is meant as a helpful access point for viewing your personal data in
the context of its use within Unity systems. For those playing games where Unity
ads appear, you may see the icon instead of the traditional information (“ℹ”)
button. For those using our software to build games, you may see it in a privacy
dashboard.
I AM A GAME DEVELOPER THAT USES UNITY SOFTWARE TO BUILD MY GAME, WHAT SHOULD I
KNOW?
You can access and update your information by logging into your Unity account on
our website. We use analytics services to understand how developers use our
software in order to improve our software and services. We also include certain
device data collection in the runtime of the software, which is incorporated
into the applications you create with the software. You should be sure that your
privacy policy explains to your players the variety of technical information
that is collected and shared with third parties like Unity. If you use Unity
developer services such as Mobile Advertising, Unity Analytics, or deltaDNA
services, read the applicable FAQs below and our Cookie Policy.
I VISIT UNITY OR ITS AFFILIATES' WEBSITES, WHAT SHOULD I KNOW?
We collect log info, including IP address and device data, related to your
visits to our site. When you post comments on our community pages and forums,
other forum users will be able to see your username, photo and comments. When
you post, you should assume that all the information you provide is public.
I PLAY A GAME THAT WAS BUILT WITH OR USES CERTAIN UNITY SOFTWARE, WHAT SHOULD I
KNOW?
Unity has collected some or all of the following information about your device:
unique device identifiers (e.g., IDFV for iOS devices and Android ID for Android
devices); IP address; country of install (mapped from IP address); device
manufacturer and model platform type (iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, etc.) and the
operating system and version running on your system or device; language; CPU
information such as model, the number of CPUs present, frequency, and
instruction set support flags; the graphics card type and vendor name; graphics
card driver name and version (e.g., “nv4disp.dll 6.10.93.71”); which graphics
API is in use (e.g., “OpenGL 2.1” or “Direct3D 9.0c”); amount of system and
video RAM present; current screen resolution; version of the Unity Editor used
to create the game; sensor flags (e.g., device support for gyroscope, touch
pressure or accelerometer); application or bundle identification (“app ID”) of
the game installed; unique advertising identifiers provided for iOS and Android
devices (e.g., IDFA or Android Ad ID); and a checksum of all the data that gets
sent to verify that it transmitted correctly.
Some developers use Unity’s Analytics, deltaDNA services and Ad services, which
collect additional information (see FAQs on Unity Analytics, deltaDNA, and Unity
Ads below for details); however, our usage of this data is largely for the
following purposes. In serving ads, we try to predict which ads will be of most
interest to you based on the games you play and the ads you watch. For Unity
Analytics and deltaDNA, we assist developers to deliver the best game experience
for you. For example, game developers who use our software often standardize
certain features to enhance game player experience, such as saving your place in
a game. This means that the game level you reached in your last session is where
you will begin when you return to the game. Developers also need our assistance
in tracking when you are eligible to redeem a reward within a game, such as when
you have completed a challenge and get store credits to purchase new tools to
play the game. In our Unity Analytics and deltaDNA services, some of your data
points will also be rolled up into an anonymized, aggregated format to help game
developers make decisions about how they support their games. For example, if a
game developer is considering phasing out support for an older version of iOS
software, they may look at the total number of players currently using that
version of iOS software to determine if they need to support that version in
updates. Another use on a per game basis is when a developer analyzes the
numbers of players dropping out after a certain level. The developer would use
this information to look at the design of their game and re-assess if the game
challenge is truly intuitive or needs some additional instruction for players.
This allows the developer to enhance the experience and retain the developer’s
customers better.
Some Unity developers may collect your information independent of Unity. Unity
does not have control over this information. If you want to request access to or
deletion of this information, then check each developer’s app settings or
website for instructions on how to make a request.
I PLAY A GAME THAT USES UNITY ANALYTICS OF DELTADNA, WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW?
Unity has collected device information, like IP address and device identifiers,
as well as events completed or actions taken within the game, including level,
number of credits, time it took you to earn them, metadata about in-game
communications and the value and details of purchases. Using our systems, the
developer of the game has ongoing access to this data. This collection and use
of data makes it possible for your experience to operate as expected by
permitting you to do things like redeem rewards you have earned or return to
where you left off in a game. Other Unity customers may have access to
aggregated reports about game activity in general across a number of games.
These reports are based, in part, on your game activities, but do not
specifically identify you or your device. The reports described in this
paragraph help developers make decisions on optimal methods to run the games
they have made for you. For example, the developer may need to know the types of
devices running the game to determine how to support game updates on an ongoing
basis. Some data collected by Unity Analytics or deltaDNA may be used by Unity
Ads for personalized advertising; see the FAQs related to advertising for more
information.
I RECEIVED AN AD FROM UNITY ADS, WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW?
Unity Ads has probably collected device information, like IP address and device
identifiers, and information regarding the delivery of ads and your interaction
with them, all of which may be shared with ad publishers and attribution
companies. For clarity, Unity collects the following data: whether you click or
tap an ad for a new game, whether you watch the ad or play a game frequently,
whether others playing a game like the one you’re playing have downloaded a
particular new game, and whether you download and install the new game you see
advertised. Where a developer has enabled certain features, Unity Ads may also
collect your session information and monetization events. All of this is for
purposes of predicting the types of new games that you might like to download.
Unity may track additional data about you in the future for purposes of making
these types of predictions, and we will notify you prior to new data collection.
DO I HAVE ANY CHOICES REGARDING THE DATA COLLECTION DESCRIBED ABOVE IF I DO NOT
WISH TO SEE PERSONALIZED ADS?
If you are in the EU and do not wish to be targeted in this manner, the first
Unity ad you see in an app (as of May 25, 2018) explains how you can opt-out of
data collection in that particular game. You can opt-out then or at any time by
clicking or tapping the “ℹ” button (or Data Privacy icon) on any ad you see (the
“ℹ” button or Data Privacy icon will also allow you to access the data that is
collected about you in that particular app). For example, you might see a
summary that includes information indicating that we see that you are using
an iPhone 8 and you are playing from Germany. In the past week we’ve seen you 5
times in this game and have shown you 27 ads. You have installed 0 games based
on those ads.
(Additionally, all users, regardless of their location, may opt-out of all
personalized advertising by enabling privacy features on their devices such as
Limit Ad Tracking (iOS) and Opt Out of Ads Personalization (Android). See your
device’s Help system for more information.)
Also, you may see certain “brand” advertising within our ad network (a brand ad
is advertising for products that are not games, such as ads for an airline
travel deal or a soft drink). Unity gets these ads from third-party networks. We
do not permit these third parties to add your app usage to their marketing
database, except for a few exceptions, which we specifically list in the
Advertising Choices section of our Privacy Policy. The small subset of third
parties listed are clearly noted as being permitted by our contracts to use the
fact that you play a particular game in their future targeting of ads to you for
other non-Unity parties. The remaining parties listed have been clearly noted
as not permitted to maintain data about the ad they served you through the Unity
network for future use. Please note that if you have told Unity not to target
you or you have exercised choices directly with these third parties as described
in our Advertising Choices section, this information will not be maintained or
used by us or these third parties. Please note that if you have elected to not
have your data collected by Unity, we do not send your advertising identifier to
any third party, and you will receive only contextual advertising inside our
network. You may also visit the third parties listed in our Privacy Policy (at
the links we provide) to see the types of data that these parties have about you
based on your device’s advertising identifier. Please review the section “What
are my privacy choices for advertising?” below to learn more about how to
exercise choice with regard to personalized ads.
I PLAY A GAME THAT USES UNITY MULTIPLAYER, WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW?
Unity has collected unique device identifiers, IP address (which may be matched
to identify approximate location for matchmaking), as well as information
regarding games played and match attributes.
WHAT ARE DEVICE IDENTIFIERS (LIKE IDFA OR FINGERPRINTS) AND WHY DO YOU COLLECT
THEM?
Like many other providers of mobile apps, instead of requiring users to create
an account and log in to it each time they access one of our apps, Unity and
others using our products may opt to recognize the user’s device through various
device identifiers. Device identifiers are also used for functions that require
Unity to recognize devices across various apps.
I USE UNITY’S GAME REPLAY SERVICE (EVERYPLAY), WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW?
A: Unity has sunset this service.
I SELL ASSETS IN THE UNITY ASSET STORE. WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW?
Unity has collected information about your device, including IP address, and
your use of the Asset Store as well as any information you actively provided
when you created your account. Our primary uses of your information will be to
facilitate your placement of assets in the store and to ensure that you are paid
in accordance with our agreement. Other uses might include sending you updates
on changes or promotions in the Asset Store. You can access and update your
account info by logging in to the Asset Store and visiting the Publisher
Administration page. Also, when you publish or provide assets for licenses on
the Asset Store, your seller name and other information in your Publisher
profile will be visible.
I BOUGHT AN ASSET IN THE UNITY ASSET STORE. WHAT SHOULD I KNOW?
Unity has collected information about your device, including IP address, and
your use of the Asset Store as well as any information you actively provided
when you created your account. Our primary uses of your information will be to
facilitate your access to the Asset Store and any assets you have purchased as
well as to assure our developers selling assets on the Asset Store that we are
effectively providing them due compensation.
Other uses of this information might include sending you updates on changes or
promotions in the Asset Store. You can access and update your account info by
logging in to the Asset Store and visiting your My Account page. You can also
adjust your settings to limit the types of marketing materials we send you or to
remove your consent for receiving any advertising from Unity.
2. PRIVACY POLICY OVERVIEW
Unity Technologies and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively “Unity”)
offer a variety of products, services, and websites for game Developers and game
players that will be referred to in this policy as the “Service” or “Services.”
Because we would like to avoid excessive formality and make this information
easy to understand, the policy refers to Unity as “we” or “us” and to the reader
as “you.” When we say “device,” we mean any device, including desktop, laptop,
PC or Mac computers, smartphones, tablets, or any other device that is used to
access or interact with the Service. When we say “Developer,” we mean a third
party that develops and/or distributes a game or other app made with Unity
software and/or a game using Unity Services. By using the Service, you agree to
this Privacy Policy and understand that we may transfer your data outside of the
European Economic Area (EEA).
It is important that you read this Privacy Policy together with any other
privacy notice or fair processing notice we may provide on specific occasions
when we are collecting or processing personal data about you, so that you are
fully aware of how and why we are using your data. This Privacy Policy
supplements the other notices and is not intended to override them.
This Privacy Policy governs our information practices for the Service, which
includes any websites, where a link to this policy is provided. It describes how
we collect, use, share, and protect information from Developers, players, ad
recipients, or people browsing or using our sites (collectively “Users”) when
Users access or interact with or use our Service. This Privacy Policy also
applies to the personal data we collect offline, such as when you call us or
interact with Unity in person, such as at an industry event or at a place of
business. This includes when Users:
* Visit Unity websites;
* Choose to interact with the community and forum pages on the Services;

* Game play activity and actions: When you play a game that uses Unity
Analytics, deltaDNA, or other Unity Game Services, certain game activities
such as play session information and monetization events are collected.
Session information and monetization events may also be collected if certain
features of Unity Ads are enabled.
* For certain products, a Developer may choose to collect custom data events,
and if using Unity Analytics, a Developer may also choose to collect User
information such as name, email address, birthdate, gender, app ID or other
Developer-defined data parameters. Please note that Unity does not access or

version, asset count (approximate number of assets in a folder), session
duration, and active duration (this differs from session duration as a
session may not time out). We collect this information and connect it to
event information for the purpose of core business metrics analysis. You
cannot opt-out of core business metric analytics as such analytics are
strictly necessary for us to run the services.
* We also collect aggregate metrics that we use for usage analytics. You can
opt-out of usage analytics in "Edit Your Privacy Settings" in the Privacy
section under "My Account".
* When you use Unity Software, it may automatically make Internet connections

more about the User and to personalize an experience, including the ads that are

range of technologies that help an operator identify Users and devices, which in
turn can help personalize an experience, prevent fraud, store preferences, and
speed up delivery of content.

PRIVACY FEATURES
If Unity delivers personalized advertising through its ad network, Unity will
provide notice and information about how you may be able to opt-out of such
personalized advertisements. Please note that the limitations available to you
are determined by the laws within your jurisdiction and the tools the developer
of your game chooses to implement. Such opportunity to opt out may occur through

available within the ad unit as described in this policy by accessing the “ℹ”
button or Data Privacy icon in the ad unit.
Developer Advertising Using Other Ad Networks
Developers may use other third-party advertising networks, and Unity’s choice
features within its ad units only apply to ads delivered in the Unity network.

providing certain identifying information, including your device advertising ID,

* For more information on Unity's policies and other Legal Information, please
see our Legal Information page.
* Some of Unity’s product features require access to your camera. While using
these features we ask that you be aware of your surroundings and be
considerate of others. Use of these features may result in cached images
being saved to your device. In certain products, we may save your images to
our cloud servers. You will be notified at the time of access if the images
are being saved to our servers. Please keep your security features on your
device up to date and securely dispose of your device when you change devices

17. BIOMETRIC INFORMATION
Your use of these features may result in the collection of biometric
information. Biometric information is any information based on an individual's
biometric identifier used to identify an individual. Biometric information that
may be collected depending on how you use Unity's products includes scans of an
individual's hand or face geometry. For example, if you are using Unity AR
Companion AP to scan a person's hand or face geometry, that may be considered to
be collecting biometric information under Applicable Laws. At this time, Unity
does not use these scans, but we do store the image in accordance with how you
choose to store the data.
We use commercially reasonable organizational, technical, and administrative
methods designed to protect biometric information within our organization.
We retain biometric information for as long as needed or permitted in light of
the purposes stated in this policy, unless a longer retention period is
permitted or required by applicable law. For more information on the criteria
used to determine our retention periods, please see the "Retention" section
above.
We will destroy or dispose of your biometric information as required by
applicable law. For example, we may destroy electronic records of biometric
information through such processes as overwriting magnetic media, degaussing, or
physical destruction, and we may dispose of paper records by such processes as
shredding or incineration.
